One of the fun parts of being a photographer is that you get to meet new people and by the end of the session, you feel like friends. This is particularly important when you are hired to photograph a couples’ journey to parenthood. In this case, I am hired to photograph their maternity, fresh 48 and lifestyle newborn. So I meet them three separate times over the course of the 9 months. Each of those sessions, I am allowed to photograph them at a very intimate and vulnerable time of their life. It is important for my clients to be comfortable around me. I tend to walk away from the session feeling like we are friends. I absolutely felt this way with Matt and Aileen. I came home from this session and my husband asked, “how was your session?” I said, “It was great! We are totally friends.”

I am honored to be able to photograph Matt & Aileen’s journey to becoming the parents of twins. Stay tuned for their fresh 48!
